Web Development for Northern Virginia Businesses
Full-stack web development for small businesses, startups, and professional firms — custom sites and apps built for Northern Virginia and DC metro clients.
Web Development Services
I've worked across the full range of web technologies — from simple business sites to production web applications. I've seen what lasts and what doesn't. That perspective is what I bring to every project. You work directly with someone who cares about the outcome and has the experience to deliver it. You'll know what's being built, why, and what it costs before any work begins.
My work spans:
Business websites — professional sites for consultants, professional services firms, contractors, and local businesses that need to show up in search, convert visitors, and represent the business accurately.
Web applications — custom software built for the web: client portals, internal tools, workflow automation, SaaS products. If a spreadsheet or off-the-shelf tool is no longer cutting it, there's likely a web application that solves your problem better.
Platform migrations — moving sites off legacy platforms that have become a liability. WordPress that breaks with every update. Concrete5 sites that nobody can edit. Squarespace sites that have hit the platform's ceiling. I migrate to whatever makes sense: Webflow for marketing sites, Next.js for applications.
Site redesigns — modernizing the look, structure, and performance of a site that's embarrassing to hand out a business card with.
The Web Development Process
Initial conversation
you tell me what you have, what you need, and what's not working. I ask questions. No sales pitch.
Proposal
a clear document describing what I'll build, the technology I'll use, the timeline, and the cost. Fixed-price for defined-scope work; hourly for open-ended engagements.
Build
regular check-ins and previews so there are no surprises at the end.
Launch
I handle deployment, DNS, performance verification, and analytics setup.
After launch
I'm available for ongoing support, additions, and changes.
Webflow, Next.js, and WordPress Development
I match the technology to the project:
- Webflow — for marketing sites, portfolios, and informational sites where the client needs editorial control without touching code
- Next.js + React — for web applications, sites with complex data requirements, and projects where performance and SEO are paramount
- WordPress — for clients who need a mature CMS ecosystem or are already running WordPress and need development work done within it
All my projects include: Google Analytics 4, structured data (schema.org), sitemap and robots configuration, and mobile-responsive design.
Small Businesses, Startups, and Professional Firms
I work best with:
- Small businesses in Northern Virginia, the DC metro area, and the surrounding region that need a real developer — not a template and a drag-and-drop builder
- Startups at the early stage that need a marketing site or MVP built quickly by someone who understands the technical decisions that will matter later
- Professional services firms — lawyers, architects, consultants, healthcare practices — that need a site that builds trust with prospective clients
- Organizations that have outgrown their current site or platform
I don't work well with clients who want the absolute cheapest option, who need to hire a large team, or who need enterprise-scale managed services. If that's what you need, I'll tell you.
Based in Northern Virginia
I'm based in Northern Virginia and work primarily with clients in the DC metro area — Fairfax, Arlington, Reston, McLean, Alexandria, and Washington DC itself. I'm available for in-person meetings when that's useful.
That said, most of my work is remote and I have clients outside the region. Geography doesn't limit what we can build together.
